I was doing just fine running my G4 under OSX 10.1.5, except when I got on the internet. I kept getting messages that I needed to upgrade my browser.

I got on ebay and bought a full install of OSX 10.2.3, and Apple upgraded it to OSX10.2.7. The computer ran fine. I also bought and installed a DVD upgrade to OSX10.3, which I installed the next day. Almost imediately the freezing started.

Force quitting the application doesn't work. Command-Shift-Power Key doesn't work. The only way to unfreeze it is to press the small button on the left on the front face of the computer.
Please help me.

Messsages from who or what? Which browser were you using?

Which sub-version of 10.3? Did you run software update after the DVD installation?

Which application(s) are freezing? There are some differences between 10.2 and 10.3 that could affect different applications differently, depending on which app and which version of the app they are.

You need to give some specific details...
